What Changed
Criteria for safety standards certificates (SSC), annual and semi-
annual inspections for trucks, trailers, buses, accessible and
school purposes vehicles can be found in the National Safety Code
Standard 11 Part B 2014 “Periodic Commercial Motor Vehicle
Inspections” (NSC 11B).
Modifications to NSC 11B have been made in Regulation 611 of
the Highway Traffic Act (HTA) “Safety Inspections”.
Complementary amendments have been made to HTA Regulation
601 “Motor Vehicle Inspection Stations”.

Slide 4
What did Not Change
Vehicles that have required inspections in the past will still require
inspections.
Annual, semi-annual and SSC.
Inspection criteria for small vehicles, motorcycles, motor tricycles
and salvage vehicles have not changed.
Frequency of inspection of vehicles has not changed.
Every 12 months a full inspection for trucks, trailers, buses,
accessible vehicles and school purposes vehicles and
Every six months an inspection without internal brake inspection for
buses, accessible and school purposes vehicles.
Current on-road standard for all vehicles has not changed.
The ongoing operating standards have not changed.

Slide 5
Frequency and Application
NSC 11B outlines inspection criteria for SSC, annual and semi-annual
inspections for the following vehicles:
SSC Inspections:
Apply to commercial vehicle (truck or trailer), bus, school purposes
vehicles, accessible vehicles.
SSC inspections are required when transferring ownership or return a
vehicle to a “fit” status.
Annual Safety Inspections:
Apply to commercial vehicle (truck or trailer), bus, school purposes
vehicles and accessible vehicles.
Semi-Annual Safety Inspections:
Apply to bus, school purposes vehicles and accessible vehicles.
NOTE: Regulation 611 is still the on-road standard for these vehicles

Slide 6
History of Ontario’s Requirements
Inspection criteria for trucks, trailers, buses, accessible vehicles and
school purposes vehicles have changed over the pervious four
years:
Prior to 2011, inspection requirements were outlined in Regulation 611
“Safety Inspections” Schedules 1 and 2.
July 1, 2011, Ontario adopted National Safety Code Standard 11 Part B
version 2006.
January 1, 2015, National Safety Code Standard 11 Part B 2014 version
came into effect in Ontario.
Ontario has a rolling adoption of NSC 11B and therefore, when the
standard is updated, the new version is automatically adopted.

Slide 7
Regulation 611 to NSC 2006
The change from Regulation 611 to NSC 11B was significant,
including:
Concept of a detailed list of items to be inspected paired with specific
reject criteria.
Introduced a record of inspection outlining defaults, repairs and brake
measurements to be provided to the vehicle owner.
New inspection criteria that better represents current vehicle technology;
i.e. ABS and air bags.
NSC 11B Periodic Motor Vehicle Inspections
Slide 8
NSC 11B 2006 to NSC 11B 2014
Overall, the revision is more precise and explicit as to what needs to
be inspected and includes some inspection items not previously
covered.
Clearly defines what the technician is responsible for when the
vehicle is certified.
Consolidating Truck, Trailer and Bus Sections together into one
document and the items organized by common subjects.
Introduces definitions for common terms.
Clarification of which items are a visual inspection only and which
involve additional procedures.
NSC 11B Periodic Motor Vehicle Inspections
Slide 9
Outline of National Standard NSC 11
Establishes mechanical vehicle inspection criteria for trucks, trailers, buses accessible and school purposes vehicles.
NSC 11 has two parts, A and B.
Ontario only uses part B which starts on page 46.
NSC 11B is used across Canada.
NSC 11B Periodic Motor Vehicle Inspections
Slide 10
NSC 11B
The standard was developed by representatives across Canada
including government, industry and manufacturers with strong
representation from Ontario.
The standard is considerably more comprehensive and technically
up-to-date than the previous iterations and was developed with the
full support and expertise of industry stakeholders.
NSC 11B is available free on-line at www.ccmta.ca; resources;
National Safety Code.

Slide 11
Outline of NSC 11B
10 sections of the standard broken down by vehicle systems and
components:
NSC 11B Periodic Motor Vehicle Inspections
Power Train
Suspension
Hydraulic Brakes
Air Brakes
Steering
Instruments and Auxiliary Equipment
Lamps
Electrical System
Body
Tires and Wheels
Couplers and Hitches
Slide 12
Format of NSC 11B 2014
Single document that identifies which inspection criteria applies to
which vehicle, underlines defined words and indicates if additional
procedures beyond a visual check is required.
NSC 11B Periodic Motor Vehicle Inspections
Slide 13
Hazardous Conditions
NSC 11B identifies "Hazardous Conditions” for each section.
Hazardous Conditions shown in NSC 11B are more serious
vehicle conditions.
In some provinces, inspection stations are authorized to take
certain action to prevent the vehicle from returning to service
until such conditions are repaired.
These conditions have no unique status in Ontario.
NSC 11B Periodic Motor Vehicle Inspections
Slide 14
General NSC 11B 2014
Inspections require a visual inspection unless otherwise stated, i.e.
“Additional Inspection Procedures”.
Commonly used terms are defined, i.e. leaking or inoperative.
Measurement tolerances introduced to clarify the level of accuracy needed
for a measurement and determine which tool to use.
Criteria involving maximum area expressed in mm2 has been changed to
a maximum diameter across to make it easier to determine compliance.
i.e. maximum size of a hole in a body section.
Recordable Defect - When a double asterisk (**) is shown in the NSC
11B, it is indicating a condition that should be recorded on the inspection
report but the vehicle will not be rejected for the purposes of the
inspection.
Use of diagrams to illustrate objective criteria, i.e.:
NSC 11B Periodic Motor Vehicle Inspections
Slide 15
Sample of New Items
Emissions control system – ensure no parts have been removed and if the
malfunction light is on, record on the inspection report; however, it is not a
reject criteria.
Inspection of hybrid power train system. NSC 11B provides an exemption
for vehicle owners who provide proof of regular maintenance on the
system.
Inspection of aerodynamic devices.
Tire pressure and tread depth must be measured and recorded on the
Inspection Report.
Prohibits retreads on steer axle.
Alternative fuel systems – Ontario uses the inspection criteria in the
standard and does not use Appendix A.

Slide 16
Brake Systems
Brake section is in three parts:
1. 3 – Introduction, provides clarity of when a wheel needs to be removed.
2. 3H – Hydraulic and other non-air brake systems.
3. 3A – Air brake systems.
Five types of brake inspections:
Drum Brakes
A. Full inspection with drums removed.
B. Wheel-on full inspection.
C. Limited inspection of drum brakes.
Disc Brakes
D. Full inspection with wheels removed.
E. Limited inspection of disc brakes.
NSC 11B Periodic Motor Vehicle Inspections
Slide 17
Drum Brakes Three types of inspection for drum brakes:
A. Full inspection with drum removed, this is a detailed inspection
of all internal components. Measurements of drum diameter and
brake lining thickness must be taken and recorded on the
Inspection Report.
B. Wheel-on full inspection, this is an inspection of the internal
brake components and is only available for cam-type drum brakes
with removable dust shields. Measurements of drum diameter and
brake lining thickness must be taken and recorded on the
Inspection Report.
C. Limited Brake Inspection of drum brake, this is an inspection
through inspection holes and is only available with the proper and
valid documentation (see Proof of Brake Inspection).
Measurements of brake lining thickness of one brake shoe must be
taken and recorded on the Inspection Report.
NSC 11B Periodic Motor Vehicle Inspections
Slide 18
Disk Brakes
Two types of inspection for disc brakes:
D. Full inspection with wheel(s) removed, this is a detailed
inspection of all internal components. Measurements of rotor
thickness and pad friction material thickness must be taken and
recorded on the Inspection Report.
E. Limited Brake Inspection of disc brakes, this is an inspection of
visual accessible components only available with the proper and
valid documentation (see Proof of Brake Inspection).
Measurements of one brake pad must be taken and recorded on
the Inspection Report.
NSC 11B Periodic Motor Vehicle Inspections
Slide 19
When to Remove Wheels and Drums
There are three types of brake inspection where the wheel or drum
do not have to be removed; wheel-on full inspection and both
Limited Brake Inspections (LBI) (Types B, C and E).
Two types of brake inspection where the wheel and or drum have to
be removed every time; Full Inspection on any disc type brakes and
a Full Inspection on drum brakes with solid backing plates. (Types
A and D)
During wheel-on inspections; the wheel and drum need to be
removed if:
Any of the required measurements cannot be taken with the wheel and
drum in place.
Any defect is found on a brake, the wheel and drum must be removed
for a full inspection in every case. (see Defective Conditions).
NSC 11B Periodic Motor Vehicle Inspections
Slide 20
Defect Conditions
Full inspection with either drum or wheel removal is required when any
defect is suspected or found during an inspection including:
Abnormal wear of friction material, brake drum or rotor.
Signs of overheating.
Negative effects of corrosion – i.e. rust jacking.
Abnormal appearance, glazing, discolouration or contamination of brake
friction material.
Damage, distortion or shifting out of place of any brake component.
Abnormal noise or response upon application or release of the brakes.
Age of the brake components, or the previous measurements of wear
compared to current measurements, indicate that a drum, rotor, or friction
material, is likely to be worn beyond the allowable limit.
Note: a complete list is available in Section 3.A.2 of NSC 11B
NSC 11B Periodic Motor Vehicle Inspections
Slide 21
Limited Brake Inspection (LBI)
LBI allows for a more cursory inspection of non exposed brake
components when previously a full inspection was completed and
documented.
Previous full inspection must have been completed within a specific
time frame to qualify for a LBI.
LBI does not require removal of a wheel or drum, where permitted,
and limits required measurements.
LBI can only be applied to trucks and trailers in Ontario.
Intent of LBI is to reduce inspection time and unnecessary removal
of wheels and drums where it is safe to do so.
NSC 11B Periodic Motor Vehicle Inspections
Slide 22
Limited Brake Inspection cont…
Trucks and trailers with disc brakes can use LBI with Proof of Brake
Inspection Report completed by a qualified technician at a Motor
Vehicle Inspection Station (MVIS) within the previous seven months.
Trucks and trailers with drum brakes can use LBI with Proof of
Brake Inspection Report completed by a qualified technician at a
MVIS within the previous 19 months.
NSC 11B Periodic Motor Vehicle Inspections
NOTE: 19 months is used to accommodate jurisdictions that require an inspection every
6 months for trucks. Ontario requires trucks to be inspected every 12 months.
Slide 23
Proof of Brake Inspection Report
A LBI can only be used if the operator provides a complete and valid
Proof of Brake Inspection Report indicating a full inspection with
drum and wheel removed (inspection types A or D).
The LBI can also apply with proper and valid documentation for a
brake overhaul or any type of work where the wheel is removed.
To qualify, the inspections must have been conducted by a qualified
technician at a MVIS and all the required information is included in
the Proof of Brake Inspection Report.
The report can cover one, several or all of the brakes on a vehicle.
A report is valid for 19 months for a drum brake and 7 months for a
disc brake.
NSC 11B Periodic Motor Vehicle Inspections
Slide 24
Proof of Brake Inspection
MVIS locations can make their own and can accept any Proof of Brake
Inspection Report as long as the following information is include:
Brake measurements must include:
Ontario requires the inspection to be conducted at a licensed MVIS.
